“You’re welcome. This is just the first prescription. Next, I will want…”
Before virtual-novel.net finished speaking, William suddenly screamed and struggled painfully in bed.
“Dad?!” Adery quickly looked at virtual-novel.net father. “Dad, what’s wrong with you?”
The moment virtual-novel.net reached out to touch virtual-novel.net father’s skin, virtual-novel.net felt as if virtual-novel.net had touched a burning water pot. It was extremely hot!
His cold had been removed, but his body had become extremely hot.
“What’s going on?” Adery turned back, looked at Merrick, and questioned virtual-novel.net loudly.
“I… I… I don’t know.” Merrick broke out in cold sweat. He had used the same method to treat countless colds, but virtual-novel.net had never seen William’s strange disease.
Why did virtual-novel.net suddenly become “hot” after virtual-novel.net recovered from his cold?
William’s skin turned extremely red as if virtual-novel.net had just come out of a hot bath in the spa. Besides, his arms, face, and legs started to have rashes. They were extremely itchy.
William felt pain and itchiness, and virtual-novel.net could not help but reach out to scratch the rashes. Whenever virtual-novel.net scratched them, his skin would break, and the pus would flow out along with blood. It was disgusting and scary.
When Adery saw the situation, virtual-novel.net felt worked up but helpless. She was a doctor, so virtual-novel.net naturally knew what the situation meant. If it continued happening, virtual-novel.net father would die in just a short period of time!
Merrick had run out of ideas. He felt so flustered that his forehead was full of sweat.
“Why would this happen? This is impossible. I’ve treated this kind of cold previously. It never turned out like this. What’s going on now?”
Adery finally realized that Merrick was unreliable. This lousy doctor thought that the Owen family’s genetic disease was the same as a normal cold. If it were just a normal cold, with the Owen family’s ability, why would nobody in the family come up with a treatment when they had so many experts?
It was because the Owen family’s cold was extremely unique to the point that they could not do anything to cure it for one hundred years.
Adery felt so flustered that virtual-novel.net almost cried. Suddenly, virtual-novel.net recalled what Thomas had said. “Your method will just treat the surface of the disease. Actually, the Owen family’s genetic disease is both hot and cold. If you use strong medicine that will give warmth, it will worsen the body internally. At that time, the patient will feel extremely hot like his body is burning, and virtual-novel.net will lose his life anytime.”
Was the current situation the same as Thomas’ description?
She even remembered Thomas saying that the last chapter of the book, Acupuncture Skills recorded the method to cure the Owen family’s genetic disease and that Stone had obtained it with his life!
Although Adery hated Stone, virtual-novel.net admitted to two points.
Firstly, nobody in the family could surpass Stone’s medical skills, not even virtual-novel.net father, William. Stone was the real genius in medicine. No matter how much effort Adery put in, it was still difficult for virtual-novel.net to be as great a shim.
Secondly, Stone understood his family’s genetic disease very well. Stone himself was a part of the family, and virtual-novel.net had to suffer from being tortured by the disease every year. Naturally, virtual-novel.net would understand the disease more than an outsider like Merrick.
He had outstanding medical skills, and virtual-novel.net understood the disease. If anyone in the world could cure the genetic disease, there would be only one person, Stone.
Adery did not want to admit it. But that was the fact.
Seeing that virtual-novel.net father was dying, virtual-novel.net could not be bothered with virtual-novel.net hatred toward virtual-novel.net brother. She also could not be bothered with the mess in the past. She exclaimed to virtual-novel.net servant, “Get a car ready now. Quick!”
The servant asked, “Miss, where would you like to go?”
Adery said, “Scott’s Remembrance Cultural Arts Entertainment, to find Thomas Mayo!”
Only the book, Acupuncture Skills in Thomas’ hands could save William now. It was the book that Stone had written with his life, and it was the only thing that Adery could still believe in.
